“Population
Most people are of the British origin, they are the British descendants. But there live many other nations, you can find there people from all other countries. America is said to be the land of emmigrants. All the cultures were mixed together, so the USA are multi-national state. Emmigrants live in communities- for example in NY there is a part called China Town or Small Italy. There are the Czech minorities in bigger towns, too.
80% are white, 12% are black, 9% are hispanic, 4% asian and only 1% native. In the past black people from Africa were caught,sold as slaves. They were taken to America. They had to work very hard on plantations. The slavery was abolished in 1865 after the war between North and South, but they were discriminated for a long time. For example women got the right to vote in 1920, but the black people got it as lately as in 1965.
The diversity can be seen in many areas of life. The emmigrants have brought their tradition,culture, meals. So it´s not true that all Americans eat only McDonalds hamburgers. You can get there everything from Mexican, Italian to Chinese food there.
